Here's an alternative viewpoint. I've almost never used a text editor to directly print text. I once used a HP Deskjet with poor paper feeding, so I adopted the habit of exporting to a document file and printing it instead. By doing so, I have better control over what and how I print. You can make style adjustments, edit the text, or reprint missed or botched pages. Nowadays I export to SXW and print using OpenOffice.org, usually with a page number in the footer.
